My checks are good and never bounce.

Besides, I have a lot money now from selling pictures of Elvis and
other movie stars on the Internet.

Why don't you buy one?

A record was set yesterday. I sold a picture of Nancy Kwan from "The
World of Suzie Wong" for $102.

A quick search of Google brings up this post which refutes the Sloan
Meister's claim that his checks never bounce.

Well Tom, we agree on this issue. Having been the recipient of a
rubber Sloan check, I know that they do indeed exist!

I wonder if Sloan ever played Claude Bloodgood? :-)

This came from a thread where Woody Harris was running for Congress in
Virginia, and Sam was ranting about Harris calling the authorities
because Sloan's daughter was tired, dirty, hungry and coming up to
strangers asking to sleep in their rooms in two different chess
tournaments in 1996. Eade first noticed the daughter wandering around
and sleeping under tables at the World Open in July in 1996, and then
Harris called the Virginia Child Protective people at the U.S. Open in
Alexandria a month later. More of this fascinating reading can be found
by going to Google and typing in Woody Harris and searching between 1996
and 2002.

This particular post was in response to a claim for several years by
Woody Harris of Virginia that Sam had written him a bad check that
bounced at the U.S. Open in Alexandria and had still not made good on it
almost 5 years later. This person however, had also received a bad
check from Mr. Sloan at some point according to this post.

Catching Sam Sloan lying is easier than catching a 20 lb trout on a
piece of snot at Trout Haven. Google has got to be one of the greatest
inventions of modern times, allowing instant access to verbatim records
of Sam Sloan's lies, particularly when he continues to make them boldly
and triumphantly, as if they were the gospel truth.
